Product Support
Wipro is a leading integrated product support services provider, specializing in providing customer support, technical support, remote management, bug-fixing and sustenance services. Wipro has in depth experience in helping companies execute strategies to reduce costs, enhance quality and improve customer satisfaction.

As the pioneer of offshore-based product support services for technology product clients, Wipro has, in the past years, developed a model of integrating its technology and product expertise, customer interaction skills and technical troubleshooting and support processes, that has resulted in substantial cost savings and superior customer experience to leading product vendors. These, coupled with quality process maturity and remote support expertise have helped clients to continue to realize their strategic objectives in managing program for remote support services.

Wipro capitalizes on the global delivery model to service the remote support needs of global technology product majors using several channels (voice, e-mail, web chat, e-services etc.) on a 24x7 basis. Benefits of this integrated approach include:

As part of this committed focus to consistently deliver value to  our customers, we have undertaken multiple activities within the process . Some examples of these activities have been:
  • Using lean shift planning techniques to plan shifts using Queuing theory. This has helped reduce deployment of support personnel by 22% per week resulting in significant financial saving for the client in terms of head count costs.
  • An extensive Six Sigma study on the non-value-added dial homes in the Process identified processes that would touch almost 45 % of the non-value-add dial homes which may result in an over all reduction of up to 33% of the incoming dial homes. This has potential to increase productivity of the support team and implicitly reduce support costs for the client.
  • A study of the type of cases that are escalated from the Wipro support center to the next level identified additional training areas which will better equip our Support Engineers to handle all these cases locally. This would mean lesser escalations to the next level which will help reduce the overall Case resolution time and also implying reduced support costs for the client and a higher end customer satisfaction score because of reduced resolution times.
A six sigma project was initiated with a focus on reducing dispatch cases without impacting service quality.  The target for this project was to achieve a 33% reduction in dispatches (to ~20% of calls) and the benefits accrued from this would essentially be annual savings from reduced dispatch costs.  The project was executed successfully and resulted in a reduction in the number of dispatches and a substantial annual savings for the client.
